Iconic series Nicholson from 1985 which is only now in her third ownership. She has a Rondal furling cutter rig and her teak deck was replaced in 2012. She has been cherished through life and her wonderful handcrafted teak interior is very close to faultless. She is VAT paid in Europe and has also obtained Returned Goods Relief in the UK. An evergreen and very usable contemporary classic with no rough edges.
